DECKING
Millboard Weathered Oak in the Embered colourway zigzags through the natural planting schemes .
The organic , highly tactile qualities of Weathered Oak and Burnt Cedar decking are in keeping with the characterful charm of the natural setting and gave Suzie ’ s team the design flexibility they needed . Suzie was delighted with the end result , “ The black hues of the Burnt Cedar boards provide a good backdrop for foliage plants , allowing their vibrant colours to really shine through . The Children ’ s Garden incorporates an amphitheatre design with curved benches ; we achieved a good radius by simply bending the fascia boards to create a seamless finish that ’ s not always possible with timber .
